Introduction to the assessment and
management of risks to human health from exposures to physical, chemical, and
biological environmental factors.Prerequisite: ENVR 130. Spring.

Impact:

Minimal. Course was taught biennially
by an adjunct and now will be taught yearly by the same adjunct for the
indefinite future.Demand has increased
recently from students taking Environmental Health as an elective for majors in
Health and Wellness Promotion.If the
course continues to be offered biennially or if it were discontinued due to
severe budget cuts, neither Health and Wellness Promotion nor Environmental
Studies majors technically would be affected because Environmental Health is
not required for any major.

Rationale:

The new description is more general
than the old one and reflects better the content of the course as it has been
taught for the past several years. Demand for the course has increased with
students majoring in Health & Wellness Promotion, and we believe that the
course provides an appropriate elective for both majors and that the demand for
offering the course annually exists.
